      Hi,=20
       I think this falls into the same kinda thing as the perfect pitch =

what temperment the piano is in,given that the piano is in some kind of =

not.When I played thirds going up,it was definitely different,as you =

wonderful,but you couldn't put your finger on what was different.=20
